You're a bit all over the place. You also seem to be unclear about the difference between ACE credits ("alt credits") and RA credits. Be clear about your priorities - whether it's speed, money, inflating your GPA for master's or something else and choose a program accordingly.
As someone who has researched the immigration angle for myself - rankings don't matter. How quickly you completed the program doesn't matter either. The only thing that matters is accreditation. For American universities, it must be RA. The only immigration program that cares about rankings is UK's "High Potential Individual" route in which your uni must be in their Top 50 list.
A degree won't open up any immigration pathways directly in most cases. If you have B1 proficiency in German you might qualify for a job-seekers visa for Germany, depending on the degree. For points-based programs like Canada's Express Entry you get points for every level of college you complete. Having a master's from an American university will increase your chances of getting an H1B visa. You can use the study visa route to immigrate to Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand after getting your bachelor's as they all have generous post-study visa regimes.
